EXTREME BEER FESTIVAL - 2016

. . .

GIVE ME TRUTH (Imperial Stout - 12.8% ABV) - This is a very special beer for us. Give Me Truth was brewed just one month after Tree House moved into the garage on East Hill Road in Monson and has rested peacefully in a Buffalo Trace barrel for over 22 months since. The content of that barrel is here for you today to enjoy. What went into the barrel as an innocent but decadent Imperial Stout emerged as an astonishing treat that tastes much like a bourbon soaked chocolate bar and carries the nuance of a beer that can only emerge from extreme care and patience. We taste sweet dark fruit, bourbon chocolate candy, molasses, toffee, vanilla, cocoa, hints of honey. . Please drink slowly and allow the complexities to reveal themselves as it warms. . . Give Me Truth was brewed before the Tree House as you know it was even conceived. It affords a special glimpse into our past and a window into our future. Thanks to you this dream continues - enjoy!

TRIPLE SHOT (Imperial Stout - 9% ABV) - In the years since it was born, Double Shot has earned a reputation around the brewery as one of our proudest accomplishments. We have learned a ton about the base beer and how it interacts with our favorite coffees. This special, exceedingly decadent version is a culmination of those efforts! We brewed a bigger base beer than ever to support a huge infusion of coffee. The result is a lavish and complex coffee beer with flavors and aromas of chocolate covered espresso beans, molasses, and brown sugar cookies, and rich milk chocolate. It’s supremely rich and perfect as a winter digestif.

KING JULIUS (Double IPA - 8.3% ABV) - The king has way of stirring up nostalgia. In late 2012, we brewed King Julius on our original Brew Magic brewing system - a whole ten gallons of it! Despite the size of the batch, the memory of it is enormous in our hearts. The thought of it brings us back to our cozy Brimfield barn, with the wood stove cranking, the record player spinning, Santa Dean mulling about, and Lauren and Kim filling growlers out of a modified chest freezer in a small nook under a wooden staircase. As we continue to move forward in our journey it felt like the perfect time to pay homage to our beginnings. King Julius is our endeavor to marry our past with what we aspire to be in the future. | King Julius is an American Double IPA brewed to be an exceptionally flavorful, juicy, and hop saturated beer while never tiring the palate. It’s vivid citrus aromas give way to flavors of orange creamsicle, mango smoothie, and a bounty of fresh tropical fruit. We find it to be supremely soft in the midst of an onslaught of flavor. We hope you like it.

DOPPELGANGER (Double IPA - 8.2% ABV) - This beer is an imperial version of Alter Ego. It is intensely kettle and dry hopped to produce a pungent and flavorful Double IPA that is super pleasant to drink. It is simply and easily described as a juicy and dank citrus bomb.
